Re: Is there anybody, who, dissatisfied with the iOS7 calendar... - 8 years ago

I think there's a lot not to like about the iOS7 calendar. For one, the number/day selections seem to slide as if they had a mind of their own. Either too fast, or too sluggish. I don't like that the Alert section has been taken lower on the page so you have to scroll down to see it. It's easy to forget that you haven't done it. It just doesn't seem as easy to use. I thought the previous version

Re: Does Apple's New 'Spaceship' Campus bother you? - 8 years ago

I have been under the assumption that the form follows the function, and rather than being just a monument to the greatness that is Apple, it is also a practical building that will help Apple stay one of the number one tech companies in the world.

She grew up in Creston, IA, my town, and lots of people I know knew her. I met her a couple of times. People here are talking about it.

Re: Mouse in glue trap, now what, I am petrified - 8 years ago

Good lord! Kill the mouse before you dispose of it. The easiest way would be to put it in a bag and stomp it. I HATE glue traps just for this reason. Imagine this way of dying for yourself. What wold be worse? I'd rather be stomped without knowing it was coming.

Re: Thousands travel to Nebraska for Lambrecht Chevy auction - 8 years ago

I heard one buyer interviewed who said that the smart buyers will never do a thing to the new, never titled, barely driven cars. The feeling was that would ruin the value that they were paying for. Sorry, I want to drive my old car.

Re: I have a rodent problem - 8 years ago

My neighbor has made a trap with a tin can a piece of wire and a bucket. The can needs both ends, or to have a new end taped onto it. The stiff wire goes through the center of the can and works as an axel. The wire goes through two holes in the upper edges of the bucket. The can must be able to spin, and is then smeared with peanut butter, but only on the middle one inch. Put the bucket somewhere

Re: Did you have to endure high temperatures in classrooms as a kid? - 8 years ago

Our schools had amazingly high ceilings and numerous, huge windows. We started after Labor Day, and while it was warm, I don't remember this intense heat we have experienced more recently. During the energy crisis, most of the schools with big windows had them replaced with much smaller windows to preserve the heat in the winter. It works for the summer too. One big difference was that we had

Re: Help Me Pick A Yard Tree? - 8 years ago

I found that thornless hawthorn trees were very prone to get aphids and defoliate. Not a good choice for our area in Iowa. YMMV.

Re: [hand trucks!] Replace or repair the tires? - 8 years ago

Even though the tires are tubless, you can put a tube in them. My hand truck had one tire that was always flat when I wanted to use it. It would take air and then be useable, but it was flat when I needed it next. I put a tube in it, and it's been fine ever since.
